Most people only see how good of a player @treyshearer10 is on the court but after his game today he spent 10 minutes with my son, a kid he barely knows, talking about the game. Thank you Trey for taking time to make a difference in another Trey’s life.

Initial thought on the shot clock: Improves the flow of the game. Teams have to be aggressive to the hoop and that leads to better ball and player movement. Also a 10pt lead in the middle of the 4th can be erased without fouling or being overly aggressive on defense.
